I have a few videos I have transcribed. I'd like to know how I'd better include them in my blog posts. Should I caption them (e.g. in Youtube) or just include the transcript at the end of the post.

Which one is better SEO-wise?

It's always better to do both. But if you don't have the time, you could always outsource the task to a professional transcription service, which is really affordable nowadays. There's a transcription service called DirectCaption.com which can get your transcription done at just per minute. They also offer a variety of caption formats that you can export, so you won't to have to worry about uploading them in any website.

If you can, do both.

If you can only do one or the other, stick with the transcript - it's guaranteed to be readable, regardless of how advanced a particular bot happens to be.
